The Fog of War. After reading Jack Roth’s book, Killing Kennedy, it seemed a good time to revisit my 20yo DVD of interviews with Robert S. McNamara, a former President of Ford Motor, who served as JFK and LBJ’s Sec’y of Defense. It’s more frightening than any horror movie. McNamara, who served under Curtis LaMay in WW2, calmly talks about the fire-bombing of Tokyo and 60 other Japanese cities in WW2, the Cuban Missile Crisis, and the Vietnam War. Unfortunately he doesn’t address the JFK assassination and the military-industrial connection to war. Still food for thought going forward. If only schools taught history.
Watching Murderers Row. Dean Martin as Matt Helm. These movies are a hoot.
Abigail. I thought it was a lot of fun.
Lured (1947) Great story of a serial killer manhunt in London with Lucille Ball as a sexy dance hall girl recruited by Scotland Yard to help trap the killer. Tons of great spooky men as suspects: George Sanders, Boris Karloff, George Zucco, and Cedric Hardwicke. Beautifully shot, very exciting.
The Quiet Man, one of my all time favorite movies!
Currently watching “Man of the Year” with Robin Williams. This is the first time that I have been able to watch Robin Williams since he passed away. It is a really good movie IMHO. Plus it has Laura Linney and Christopher Walken in it.
Invaders from Mars 1953. Year I was born. Sci Fi movie ahead of its time. FYI Charley Martin Smith is a '53 too.
Thanks for the tip. I like watching those movies late at night.Abigail. I thought it was a lot of fun.
I love the 50s horror/alien movies I grew up with. What source material did you watch? I remember Invaders from Mars on TV as a kid, but media prices range from $20-40. I just don't remember if I liked it that much to bother.
I have Xfinity cable. It was free on Xuma or another similar free channel. I like this one a lot too. No one gets killed.
The last stop Yuma county. Good low budget heist film. Reminds me a bit of early Tarantino. Recommended.
T-34 (Director's Cut), a 2018 Russian WW2 film, free on amazon prime. A Russian tank crew, captured by the Germans, steal a T-34 and escape their German POW camp. Great tank battles, good acting and slo-mo special effects, back when Russians were the "good" guys. It's still a great film.
Shane (1953), recorded off TCM. I don't think I'd seen this one in 60 years. Good actor (Ladd). Too bad it was filmed in 1:33:1 (4:3). It really deserved to be widescreen.
The last movie I watched was The Flash. Before you say what I think you are going to say...
I bought the movie because of the best Batman ever, Michael Keaton! followed by Christian Bale, and Adam West. (There are no other Batmans, I can't hear you...)

I guess they are a series of movies I dont know. But anyway ive been watching Midsomer Murders. Tom Barnaby was right. Nothing good ever happens in Badgers Drift.
Revolver
Possibly the worst Guy Richie film ever. Definitely the worst Jason Statham flick I've ever seen.
Took one for the team so you wouldn't have to.
